Golang : Fuzzy string search or approximate string matching example
For this tutorial, we will learn how to do a fuzzy search in Golang. Fuzzy search or approximate string matching algorithm is a technique of finding strings that match a pattern approximately. The algorithm is useful to determine a question or sentence intent, sentence auto-complete/suggest and building artificial intelligence chat bot.
Here you go!
package main
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/renstrom/fuzzysearch/fuzzy"
)
func main() {
// find
input := []string{"example", "help", "assistance", "existence"}
fuzzyMatches := fuzzy.Find("ex", input)
fmt.Println("Matches found : ", fuzzyMatches)
}
Happy coding!
